Regensburg-simple and inclusive

Guided tour of the city

Description

The tour guides of kulttouren will take you on a walk through the unique old town of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Regensburg. Let yourself be fascinated by the stories and buildings from the time of the Romans and the Middle Ages, when Regensburg was a stone-rich metropolis. The magnificent buildings of this time still characterize the cityscape today and make the city on the Danube the "northernmost city in Italy". 

kulttouren e.V., the association of Regensburg tour guides, offers guests to the UNESCO World Heritage city of Regensburg more than fifty different themed tours. No matter whether you are interested in the almost 2000-year-old history of our city, or your heart beats rather for the tavern or coffeehouse culture, whether you want to learn more about famous or also notorious Regensburgers - everyone will find something with our varied offers. The city of Regensburg attaches great importance to the fact that its old town can be experienced accessible in many areas. In addition, it is possible to get to know our city on a tour in simple language or to experience the history(s) of Regensburg in sign language.
